The Neoproterozoic central African Copperbelt is one of the greatest sediment-hosted stratiform Cu–Co provinces in the world, totalling
140 Mt copper and 6 Mt cobalt and including several world-class deposits (P10 Mt ...

The Limpopo Belt of southern Africa is a Neoarchean orogenic belt located between two older Archean provinces, the Zimbabwe craton to the north and the Kaapvaal craton to the south. Previous studies considered the Limpopo ...

The lower Jurassic Karoo–Ferrar magmatism represents one of the most important Phanerozoic continental flood basalt
(CFB) provinces. The Karoo CFB province is dominated by tholeiitic traps and apparently radiating giant ...

The Neoarchaean Tati granite–greenstone terrane occurs within the southwestern part of the Zimbabwe craton in NE
Botswana. It comprises 10 intrusive bodies forming part of three distinct plutonic suites: (1) an earlier ...

Two main Mesoproterozoic provinces occur in southern Namibia: (1) The high-grade Namaqua Metamorphic Complex (NMC) composed
of a supracrustal sedimentary succession and interpreted as a passive margin sequence in the west ...

Rocks of the Neoproterozoic Mwashya Subgroup (former Upper Mwashya) form the uppermost sedimentary unit of the Roan Group. Based on
new field and drill hole observations, the Mwashya is subdivided into three formations: ...

The structural organization of a giant mafic dyke swarm, the Okavango complex, in the northern Karoo Large Igneous Province (LIP) of
NE Botswana is detailed. This N1108E-oriented dyke swarm extends for 1500 km with a ...

The Okwa Basement Complex crops out at the northwestern edge of the Kaapvaal craton within the Okwa Inlier, an isolated exposure
of Precambrian basement in the Kalahari Desert. New U–Pb zircon dating was performed on all ...

This paper is prepared within the frameworks of IGCP Project 470 and the associated BRGM scientific project ‘‘Africa 1999–2004’’ to
accompany the 1:4,000,000 scale map ‘‘Geology and major ore deposits of Central Africa, ...

The Nguba and Kundelungu Groups constitute the middle and upper parts of the Neoproterozoic Katangan Supergroup, respectively,
and consist of conglomerates, sandstones, mudrocks and carbonates. During deposition, the ...

This paper is aimed at developing a geostatistical model to improve interpolated annual and monthly rainfall variation using remotely-
sensed cold cloud duration (CCD) data as a background image. The data set consists of ...

This work considers new evidence for palaeo environmental change taking place during the Pleistocene in northern Botswana. Duricrusted strandlines along the northeastern margin of Sua Pan provide palaeo-environmental data ...

A seismic refraction analysis was carried out on data acquired on an 8.5 km profile at Lake Ngami, NW Botswana, to determine the
structure and stratigraphy underlying the lake. The seismic spread comprised a 48-channel ...

Luiswishi is a Congo-type Neoproterozoic sediment-hosted stratiform Cu–Co ore deposit of the Central Africa Copperbelt, located
northwest of Lubumbashi (DRC). The ores form two main Cu–Co orebodies hosted by the Mines ...

Sediment samples from a continuous 4.6m profile in the dry bed of Lake Ngami in NW Botswana were analysed for geochemistry and
dated using both 14C and TL methods. Certain units in the profile were found to be diatom rich ...
